The Rochester Area FCA Youth Flag Football League is for boys and girls, in grades 1-6 (Fall 2014) who want to develop their football skills, grow as an athlete through teamwork, and build their personal character. Athletes will have a team practice session to work on their football skills each night before playing against other teams in their age group. At each session, there will be a speaker focusing on a specific character theme:

Heart of a Champion, Sportsmanship, Being a Good Teammate, Self-Discipline, Overcoming Adversity,
Being an "Uncommon" Athlete, Combining Faith & Sports

League commissioner will be James Bolin, FCA Campus and Camps Ministry Associate for Southeast MN.
